MAKEOVER SOUR CREAM COFFEE CAKE

Makeover Sour Cream Coffee Cake image

Warm, buttery coffee cake: you just can't beat a good one. With a lovely, tender interior and a slightly crunchy crust, this has a wonderful texture not unlike poundcake. But it's the lemon and almond flavors plus the full cup of walnuts that really take this over the top on taste.-Janice Kuhlmann, Newington, Connecticut
